(2006/10) OCTOBER 2006 MTB

Shirley, at least you plan early. I never plan lor, so never save money for my retirement. Or the money i save not enuf cos I dont really want hb to compromise on his lifestyle to let me be SAHM lor. But I tyhink downgrading the house and the car is ok. I can give up shopping since I wont need to go out so often being a SAHM.
 


Esther, you sound like pro. can be housing agent liao. Thanks. Hmm... I called the agent who sodl me the apartment to check on the market value for my PP. If price is good, easier to convince hb to sell.

coral

yup they still have the cap for the income level. what my friends did is to let the wife quit the job and apply for the flat and subsquently went to look for another job. u can do that too, give u more reasons to be SAHM, hehe
 
think you still can go to Groups from yahoo.com. But might still be blocked if your office blocked the whole group thingy.

PHOTO UPLOADED
==============
8 uploaded and adding on...
Other mummies got photos can also add in leh...
I also want to see other mummies photos!!
 
You ladies are so fast!

crystallized,
you mean R is gg to be topless when swimming? Just wear swim diapers only?
As for milk ss when they start solids, i can't really tell cos J was predominantly latched in his 1st 6 mths. I started pumping on a regular basis only when i went back to work in his 6th months so i can't compare my daily volume. I was pumping 800-1000ml each day initially until he was about 9 mths old and i was very stressed at work so supply dropped.

jenny,
actually the thought of ligation occured to me cos mine c-section, lagi easier. But then, i gave birth at Mt A which is a catholic hospital, so they don't do ligation procedure, plus i'm a catholic myself and by right not suppose to liagate also.
So i only intend to rely on condom lor. if really suay suay kenna again, just treat it as God's will.

coral,
i was also discussing with hubby yesterday that if we buy a HDB, we will be debt free. but i share the same thoughts as your hubby. i like mature estates but a lot of these places, the surrounding condition not v desirable (no offense to anyone here!)
 
hmmmm, juz now while i was expressing, i kept pondering on the subject of SAHM when #2 comes. so tempting... muz go and furthur discuss wif hb liao.

Esther,
u was an ppty agent? interesting...

Shirley
my ILs, BIL & SIL r staying wif us, not the other way round coz the flat is under me & hb's name. i can get along wif them but i juz dun like my SIL. i rather we dun stay under the same roof. tts y i tell u, the day when i noe she moves out is the day i cry wif joy.
lame.gif

wah u got planning leh... wanna b a SAHM in a few yrs time. gd 4 u leh...

Coral

Vivian

aiyah gotta go off liao... wanna ask u abt the supply thing... will post tonight...
 
Crystallized,

Alice,
ayden bday is 29 oct... tis month no 29th, so count as he turn 4mths on wed lor.. yesterday was his "lunar" 4th mth.. but we didnt let him lick drumstick nor marie biscuit... nobody "practise" this in my family... so gave it a miss....


bbgrace,
aiya.. emma nv come.. in e end ayden got to "fight" with a few other boys for andrea's affection leh.... hehehe...
ur hb so sweet... but very "Smart" too... hehehe.. mayb he knows u'll not want him to spend tat kind of $$ tats y...
kao_sticktongue.gif
juz kidding....


jRt,
hehehe... u better "enjoy" urself b4 R flips.. now change pampers for A v difficult liaoz.. even tho he's not flipping over, but he turn his body until difficult to put pampers on him liaoz...
too bad u didnt come.. was lookin forward to meeting u.... hope u recover liaoz lor... make it for e nex gathering lah....


selina,
thanks for organizing e whole gathering n bringing e extra chairs... otherwise paiseh got to make all e mummies n daddies stand / sit on e floor....
i was right lah.. u r pretty mummy in person too lah... stylo mummy leh... caleb following mummy's footsteps liaoz...
 
Esther, no wonder lah.

Shirley, even if I quit my job, we still beyond the cap, so no way can we apply a flat thru HDB. If your hb can help, better, cos I dont like my agent. My place is in NClave, Phse. 189sqm, 2010sqft.

Bbgrace, the tot of being debt free is really very attractive leh. Then all income is for us to spend and to retire to. Am going to convince hb thru this angel. But I also need to consider very carefully abt the environment. The new estates are fine, but mature estate tend to be dirtier. But it's the mature estates that got better amenities. Not easy to find the ideal home.

Yeah, all this talk abt n=being SAHM seem to refocus my breasts. Just manage to express 200ml of milk.
happy.gif


Vivian, aiya, your Rhys got Andrea and Desiree liao, so my Char smart not to waste her electricity on Rhys. Char probably looking around for her D. ;P

704570.jpg

Starz, how can we make you work hard and pay too? You very kind lah. haha, your hb was sharing with my hb abt how you told him 7 couples coming, then 12 couples then 20+couples. Hope he didnt get too much of a shock.
 
Coral

i will check with my hubby tonight, let u know tomorrow. think the property prices going up so its good to review the valuation

Starz

I know wat u mean of changing diapers. Isaac has started to roll and so i need to hold him down to change diaper and he hates to be restraint and will scream at me. so sometimes i need my hubby to help jus to change his diaper. Headache.

Really find A damn cute can sit in the rocker and watch sports channel and "talking" very guai!
 
Starz,

shirley,
aiyoo.... Isaac sleeping sooo sweetly in e photo.. he muz hv been reli tired out yday... anyone ever told u tat u look like "zhu ying" e HK actress????
wat do u work as?? where u usually travel to??? i also "held off" travelling for awhile liaoz.. i think latest by May i got to start travelling le.. only headache is if i'm still bf-ing, dont know how to pump on e flight leh.....


jo,
is K okay??? aiyoo... so rush for u yday..
btw, juz wana ask, is ur mum n sis okay?? my hb said mayb we didnt ask them to come in n sit, n offer them drinks.. they looked abit unhappy leh... if so, pls say sorry on my behalf hor... cos we were bz organizing e photo session.. may have neglected to be proper hosts.... so sorry......


coral,
wah... u very tall leh.. n pls.. i also agree u r definitely not "auntie" okay... warehouse is "tai tai" lah.....
kao_sticktongue.gif

eh, mine also a resale 5-rm.. also cost $300k, but valuation was only $280k, we paid e ex-owner $20k cash cos we liked this plc too much...
if u wan, i think sengkang got one of e "cheapest" 5-rms around.. cos hb sold his old flat at less than $250k (at a loss)... e neighbourhood is stil relatively new leh.. so shd b okay mah... or u find those "point block" whereby u only hv 2 or 3 neighbours like my plc.. no need to worry too much lah....
like tat i dont need to help u "think" abt ur floorplan yet lor???

Starz

hee hee if only i am half pretty as zhu ying. thanks for ur compliment. I am in audit line so need to travel to asia countries for auditing. usually thailand, HK, Korea and Japan.

So what are u working as? designer? i love the preggy photo u took with ur hubby, so cool. regreted not taking with my hubby.

my boss kept telling me bf and travel can be done. but i guess if u need to travel to us or longer flight, cant pump in the airplane. also i dont think u will want to pump cos the airplane air is not very clean.

but if not so long, wat my boss did is to pump and freeze in the hotel's freezer and ask the air steward to store it in the plane's freezer. Also she bought a cooler box to transport the breast milk

i am quite skeptical about the condition of the milk as it may turn bad during transportation. me quite paranoid lah. Moreover, isaac doesnt like frozen milk so i can forget abt it...
 
coral,
no prob la... i've always loved gatherings n hosting.. juz hoped i'm doing a good job lor... hehehe.. i "prepared" my hb early liaoz.. so he already knew to expect so many pple...


shirley,
wah...tat was e "good" side u saw mah... but he reli does enjoy soccer... i dont know coincident or wat, but he only gets "excited" during e really exciting parts in e match... if e match quiet down he also juz watch quietly one....


vivian,
hehehe... eat snake ar.... paiseh hor, "gu1 fu4" ur hardwork no time to posts my photos in e yahoo group yet... my mum rushing me to go shower liaoz, so i can take care ayden when she make dinner later....

ta ta for now....
kao_byebye.gif
 
Starz, can consider your suggestion, point block...Hmm, ya lor dont think of my flr plan first. Oh ya, must tell you in person hor you really very diff from your first pic. The first pic like a very playful and agressive person, but in real person you so demure and soft spoken. And definitely very approachable liek you say.

Vivia, thanks for uploadiong. Hope tomorrow I not working will have time to upload, depends on Char...
 
Starz,
No problem... saw your photos at a glance from your site. Very nice...
Maybe if i eng next few days, will copy the pix from your site and post it in the yahoo groups to share...
happy.gif


cannot liao.. I must leave this laptop... ahhh...
 
hi coral,

so it was true, i was looking at the pics, seem like more boys than gals.. actually was looking forward to seeing u & Char.

r u interested in tampines area? just a causual remark, cos my sis is planning to sell away her 5-rm.
 
coral,
tats not very good leh. I've an article on BM. When mother is stressed/angry or in bad mood, BM can be toxin to bbs.

crystallized,
my office meeting rooms cannot lock one. One of the policies... Cos last time got an ugly incident.
At least wear a t-shirt over R. But hor, you on cruise leh, q windy leh, you better get him a swimwear!!

Shirley,
You are right. Being a SAHM means we have to change our lifestyle. Frankly speaking, I'm not prepared to let go. Not becos of the car and dining + shopping luxury but my freedom!!! I dun wan to be tied down by my kids. So for me, see how first lah.
I also take into considerations what if I'm a SAHM, my hb is the only one working. Quite risky for the ecomoncy now lor.

babygrace,
Oh ya hor, Mt A dun do ligation one. You know how this is being done? They said C-section is easier to do... I guess I have to do with condoms...
 
Gals !!
You muz be enjoying at starz place ya..
its really fun to see all the mummies with all the daring bb.
Quick quick show me more pixs
